As mid-career leaders, we often feel alone.
The reality is that many of us struggle with the same challenges, but we solve them in isolation. We need a vehicle through which to share best practices across companies and industries and learn together in our collective experience.
Given the need to focus on women and those identifying with femininity during the pandemic, we are offering two open enrollment cohorts for women leaders across in 2022. With many employees working remotely, this is an opportunity for companies to provide leadership training externally without bringing a program in-house.
According to the 2021 Women in the Workplace study conducted by McKinsey and Leanin.org1, “Companies need to take bold steps to address burnout. They need to recognize and reward the women leaders who are driving progress. And they need to do the deep cultural work required to create a workplace where all women feel valued.”
What is THRIVE?
THRIVE is a totally new coaching experience led by EDGE Leadership CEO and Founder, Christy Uffelman, BCC, MHCS, and developed to provide women and those who identify with femininity with a powerful roadmap to professional and personal success. Powered by years of leadership research and real world best practices, THRIVE delivers seven two-hour each month, value-packed sessions in a safe, educational, and online environment energized by a supportive community of your peers.

EDGE Leadership Powered by Partners
After years of success connecting peers together inside of large organizations, we launched EDGE as a 75% virtual open-enrollment group coaching experience in 2015. EDGE was the first women’s group coaching experience of its kind targeting mid-career professionals and has a 9-month cohort experience that launches each year in January.
Now 95% virtual, designed for high-potential mid-career professionals identifying as women, our EDGE Experience is the first women’s mentoring experience of its kind. Unlike many “out-of-the-box” women’s leadership programs, our EDGE participants co-create the leadership content to ensure it delivers exactly what they need – NOW! – to grow and progress in their career.
EDGE Leadership’s trademarked process for engaging peers is used for EDGE Women in an innovative virtual and in-person group coaching experience that brings value to you as a mid-career leader. Benchmarked with Fortune 500 companies, EDGE is a contemporary leadership program that provides a living experience that adapts and changes with the needs of each cohort.
Leveraging both virtual and in-person sessions over the course of 9 months
Participants will hone their EDGE by gaining greater expertise in areas that include:
- Build a strategic network both inside and outside your organization
- Brand attributes, including creating your personal pitch and bio
- Create a powerful social media presence that reflects your brand
- To develop your direct reports and hold them accountable
- To “self-coach” and to promote collaboration and teamwork with your peers
- To experience being coached monthly
- Understand how to influence peers and manage up
- Identify and enroll mentors and advocates and create an actionable strategy to serve as both for others in your life - personally and professionally
EDGE and The Pittsburgh Technology Council are teaming up to give you the opportunity to experience this 9-month cohort and ensure that the leadership content you receive is exactly what you need in 2022 to advance your career.
PTC and EDGE Leadership Solutions will look at candidates holistically through an application process to evaluate both what they will gain from the experience, and also what they offer to the experience. The selection process is designed to bring together a unique, diverse cohort group across the generations to maximize every participant’s learning potential.
